Chapter 131: The Man Inside the Door
"I really didn't expect that we would find such an ancient ruin." Luo Ruyan looked left and right in front of the door without fear, not worrying at all about whether it would trigger any mechanism.
"You just walked up so rashly, aren't you afraid that there will be any danger or mechanism?" Yuan Xi saw that nothing happened to Luo Ruyan, so he first walked to the two stone lamps and observed, the stone lamps were also very exquisitely carved, but the mouths of the two children looked numb, Yuan Xi felt that the mouths of the two children seemed to be forcibly opened by something, and he didn't know what was burning in the stone lamp, it had not burned out after so many years, Yuan Xi didn't believe that there would be someone here to add fire to the stone lamp regularly.
Yuan Xi has not studied archaeology, and she can't see how old these stone statues are or what style they belong to, but she personally feels that these stone statues don't seem to belong to any culture she has seen, the robe of the fox statue is like the ancient style of ancient China, but the armor of the headless stone statue has a bit of the flavor of Western Byzantine Rome.
"It's a blessing or a curse, it's a curse that can't be avoided." Luo Ruyan said calmly: "The giant didn't kill me before, and now we have been alive to come here, after all, our luck is still good." Moreover, even if there were a mechanism here, it should have been triggered a long time ago. ”
"Also, since there is this secret passage, the people who excavated the secret passage should have come here before us, and since they have visited here, the target must be what is behind this bronze gate." Yuan Xi nodded and said, "Then why is this door still closed?" ”
The bronze door was closed and heavy, there was not a single gap in the closing, and its weight should be on the ton. It didn't look like a human could push it open with force, and there was nothing like a mechanism around that looked like a door open.
"I guess the people who visited here didn't succeed in opening the door, but we can clearly see that they tried other ways to get in there, even though they didn't open it." Luo Ruyan squatted down and twisted a handful of dirt. I grabbed another handful of gravel and looked at it, holding my phone up to shine it all over the cave.
"There are people here who have carried out fixed-point blasting, and it still has a considerable equivalent." Luo Ruyan said flatly.
"Spot blasting?" Yuan Xi looked at the mess of rubble and ruins around him, as well as the broken warrior stone statues, and the cracks in the walls, if Luo Ruyan hadn't mentioned it, Yuan Xi wouldn't have noticed it, so if he looked closely, it was indeed very similar to the explosion here: "But if this place has really experienced an explosion, why hasn't it collapsed until now?" ”
"As I said, it's a spot blast." Luo Ruyan emphasized: "Fixed-point blasting has undergone very precise calculations and measurements, and it will generally cause less damage to places outside the direction of the explosion, and will be blasted specifically for a certain point. At the beginning, Sun Dianying used directional blasting to blow up the mausoleum of the Empress Dowager Cixi, have you ever heard of his blasting blowing up the mausoleum of the Empress Dowager? This is a very common grave digging technique for grave robbers. According to the distribution of cracks in the walls here and the direction of the spread of rubble and stalactites around it, the original direction of fixed-point blasting should be on both sides of the bronze gate. ”
Luo Ruyan walked to the bronze door, his mobile phone shining up and down, but he was surprised to find that the stone walls on both sides of the bronze door did not leave any traces. Instead, the bronze door is marked by black scorch marks from the explosion, which are not obvious.
"It's weird. If it were to be blasted here, there would be no trace left on the wall! Yuan Xi also noticed the suspicions found by Luo Ruyan.
"It shouldn't be that there are no traces, the explosion should have been carried out successfully, at least on the bronze door, if you really want to say what happened......" Luo Ruyan hesitated and said: "It's like someone blew up the passage on both sides of the bronze door, but then the wall here grew a new layer of stone to fill the hole in the past." ”
"That sounds ridiculous." Yuan Xi smiled dryly: "Is the cave wall here alive?" Can you also heal wounds on your own? ”
But if it's in the bizarre spirit world, it's not impossible, right? Everything in the spiritual world must not be taken for granted.
"Huh? Didn't you study life sciences in the UK? Why do you know so much about blasting? Yuan Xi only found out that something was wrong now, she never knew that Luo Ruyan was interested in explosives when she was in college.
"It's a necessary knowledge for my job, and I've spent a lot of effort on it myself. After all, people have to constantly take the initiative to adapt to new environments. But it doesn't matter compared to what we're going to be in right now. Luo Ruyan said lightly, Yuan Xi really can't think of any company whose work will have anything to do with explosives and life sciences, and Luo Ruyan, who was once fragile and sensitive in Yuan Xi's heart, is now facing the sudden situation in the spirit world, and the degree of acceptance and reaction is unbelievable, Yuan Xi really can't imagine what happened to her in the UK.
Remember seeing the name of the company she worked for on the school's announcement, right? The British company "Nightspring"? Translated into Chinese, is it Night Spring? Or the Night Spring? The former one sounded a little sassy, but the latter was a little weird.
"Are we going to find a way to open this door and get in?" Yuan Xi felt that Luo Ruyan seemed to know more about this place than she did, and felt that it was necessary to consult her opinion.
"We can't get in, someone may have blown the walls open before, but now the two of us are going to dig a passage with our hands?" Luo Ruyan shook his head, and glanced at Yuan Xi strangely: "And this is the spiritual realm in your mouth?" You have more experience than I do, shouldn't I take your opinion as a reference? ”
"Are there other exits? The fact that this gate clearly leads deeper into the earth, and the fact that we can still breathe fresh air proves that there are other passages to the surface that are hidden? Yuan Xi thought for a while and then said what he thought.
"It's really possible, so let's two look for it, maybe there will be other secret passages that can be opened here." Luo Ruyan smiled reluctantly and said.
However, the two of them touched almost every corner of the stone cave by the faint light, and even the stone lamps, sculptures and almost all the stalactite pillars and stalagmites were thoroughly searched by them, but they did not find the slightest, although some cracked stone walls were knocked with their hands, and then they seemed to have an echo because of the space, but it was obviously not two girls who could be smashed with their bodies, after all, they were not the eldest sister Laura in the Tomb Raider, with a mountaineering axe, they could open the walls of the major tombs and demolish them, And the bronze gate was tacitly ignored by the two of them almost at the same time, as if there was something very terrible behind the door, so that they both subconsciously stayed away.
"Nothing to discover......" Yuan Xi sighed helplessly.
"Could it be that the mystery can only be found on this gate?" Luo Ruyan's gaze returned to the bronze gate that was closed as if it had been sealed or something, with inexplicable fear in his eyes.
Yuan Xi really didn't even want to look at this gate, she felt that the door itself was like a hair-making magic, or some indescribable power, the decoration painted on the door seemed to be some kind of text, and like some pictures of unknown meaning, only the slender moon was clearly visible, obviously it was all bronze background, but Yuan Xi subconsciously felt that the moon was blood-red......
Behind the door was the secret of the Blood Moon, Yuan Xi's instincts told her.
But she is not in the mood to explore the secrets of the Blood Moon now, the so-called secrets have always been born with danger, escaping here is her primary goal, there are other things besides them here, Yuan Xi's intuition has always warned her.
"If you don't have to, don't go near that door just yet." Yuan Xi said resolutely: "Let me check it with the camera first." ”
Only then did Yuan Xi remember that the Eternal Night Camera, which had been held in her arms before, had done an experiment a few days ago, and now she almost forgot, in addition to this camera being able to damage and repel the creatures of the spirit world to some extent, it can actually shoot some things that cannot be observed with the naked eye, and maybe find some clues?
Yuan Xi first raised her camera to the bronze gate not far in front of them, and as expected, she photographed something that made her chilled.
Beneath the camera, the unrecognizable notches and patterns on the bronze gate are connected by lines of glowing dark red, forming a complete figure, a tall, slender red figure of about two meters, which appears to be dressed in a robe and some kind of tiara, and still writhing like a living creature in the light of the stone lamp......
Yuan Xi felt that this figure gave her a familiar and ominous feeling, like ......
Someone was buried, nay, molten into this bronze gate.
Is it as a guardian, or as some kind of curse? Yuan Xi didn't want to know. (To be continued.) )
